Burgers are the perfect balance between meat, cheese, bread and a small amount of veggies. French Onion Soup burgers add a splash of decadence to an already delicious meal. There is a special spot in my heart that I hold for Gruyere cheese and any time I get to add it to a meal, it…

The Power of the Cheese Board
Although it seems like an easy thing to do, creating the perfect cheese board is very difficult. Trying to find the right balance of sweet, salty, savory and crunchy takes a lot of trial and error. When I am putting together a cheese board I like to think about the rest of the meal I…
Grilled Figs with Mascarpone Cream and Cherries
I had a similar dish when I was in New Orleans and it blew my mind. I had never had figs before, other than a Fig Newton, and I loved everything about them. The dish I had was sweet, savory and very filling. As soon as I got back from my trip I knew I…
Linguine with clams and chorizo
In the summertime in New England there is an abundance of seafood and in my opinion the best time to eat clams. They are sweeter, easier to find and incredibly satisfying to eat. When I went into the grocery store trying to figure out what to make for dinner, the clams were the only thing…
Paella…my ode to seafood!
This summer I decided to be adventurous, try new things, and hopefully eat delicious food! I went on some amazing trips and definitely tried some new foods…head cheese. I wanted to try to break out of my comfort zone and try making a dish that I never would have dared try. This summer, I made…

Pan Seared Salmon with Green Goddess Dressing
I go through phases where all I want to do is eat fish. It can get tedious to just eat salmon, trout or cod every day, so I started to research different dressings/sauces to put on the fish and on the side. I have always loved Green Goddess dressing and wanted to try and make…
Lobster Mac N Cheese
Living in New England there are a few things that you get to benefit from while being subjected to the grueling winter. I get to experience actual fall foliage, I get to go apple picking and I have access to amazing seafood. I don’t always indulge in making such a decadent meal, but sometimes Mac…
Lamb Tagine
A few months ago I went on a trip to Paris to visit my best friend who had moved there earlier in the year. We did many of the tourist things, we visited the Eiffel Tower, we hiked up to Montmartre and we had hot chocolate at Angelina. On one of the last night nights…
Chicken Marsala
I have discussed the combination of sweet and savory often in my blog and I believe that Chicken Marsala is a great savory dish that has a hint of sweetness. The dish is offset with the saltiness of the prosciutto, which I believe adds to the depth of the dish. Since I was very young,…
